information. The information received may include, but is not limited to, academic, residential, achievement, job performance,
attendance, litigation, personal history, credit reports, driving history, disciplinary and conviction records.
I, the undersign, hereby authorize and grant my informed consent to permit the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (hereafter “BCA”)

not be able to determine whether my conviction record is a job-related consideration.
